Market checklist by Camryn’s cute creations/ help the reference everything I needed to bring!

Trying to include all pattern credit * let me know if I missed something you would like to check out !
Thank you so so much for joining me😊
Kindness only, thank you
I just found ur channel and I know ur gonna go on my “CZcams videos to binge watch while crocheting” list😆🤍
Aw yay ! The binge while I crochet videos are my favorite 😋 thank you for supporting the journey !
I’m getting married in 4 months and just started my crochet business so you know I immediately had to subscribe ❤
Thanks for sharing the tip on velcro banners (not sure if that was another video as I'm binge-watching at the moment but will use that tip)
That's pretty cool that you met Katie
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for the support😊🫶🏻 and it sure was neat to meet her!!!
You are spot on about not having the same inventory as everyone else. Nothing worse than setting up at a market and having price being the only difference between you and another artist 😬
I have been making whatever makes me happy for a while now and have stayed away from things that are crazy popular for the most part. For the first time in a while I had an overlapping product with another artist and someone actually came back to my booth after they left to check my price against the other booth. That's such a weird feeling. I kind of felt bad when I got the sale over the other booth.
I also bought that bamboo stand and I don't think it's great for markets. It's not very sturdy.
I just found your channel and I have been binge watching all of your videos lol as a crochet creator myself, I really enjoy seeing your business and channel grow! I also feel like if I ever met any of the CZcamsrs that I watch in person, I would be fangirling as well lol
Tysm for the support 🥰🫶🏻 and it was unreal to see her in person !
I just found your Chanel and I’m already obsessed! Can’t wait for more videos! Keep it up you have great points about diversifying yourself from others and that’s definitely going to help you!
☺️ thank you for supporting 😍 more to come !
Your little flamingo and duck are so cute! I love your channel
I love this video! I'm currently working full-time and want to open up a knitwear shop, so I find it motivating to see you do it!
Aww ! You CAN do it, and good luck 🥰🫶🏻

Omg great minds think alike I bought the same bathtub and basket at Michael's the other day just had to have them they were soooo cute! ❤
It is SO cute and they had a mini bench too 🥹 I didn’t commit to purchasing both but mini furniture is so cute lol

I got them off of Firmoo, my doctor wrote my prescription down and after you choose the frames you can add your prescription! 😍

If your book covers fit a tablet you can market it that way also. Personally, I think they are very pretty.
I love that idea! I’ll take note when I make a sign for it at the next market😍
congrats on the weding love ya
i just started crotchet and stumbled ab your channel and now im hooked! could you possibly share the strawberry pattern please??💖💖
I actually winged those 🥲 I’m sorry I don’t have a pattern for them, I know there are plenty of free strawberries on insta tho !
Hii❤, I love watching your videos. It inspires me so much. I am looking forward to doing a market in the summertime. Do you know if you have to have a license to have a booth or anything like that and also what do you use for packaging when a customer buys something?
Thank you for the support!!! Every market is different. I choose to sign up for easier markets right now since I’m just starting out selling. * as long as I pay the fee and follow their guidelines, I can show up with only providing them my business name and what I sell. To find these markets. Honestly, I go on Facebook events and look through all of the vendor requirements to see if it’ll be a good fit for me or not .Other markets require every vendor to pay for insurance which can cost up to $300 a year. Those insurance required markets also have a jury. Typically the jury is where you have to submit multiple photos of your products and specific display setups, write a paragraph about what you’re selling, pay them the fee and they get to choose if they want you there or not.
I haven’t gone through the jury process yet, but at least that’s how it’s been looking in South Florida when I go to apply for markets . The good thing about being at a jury show is they typically will make sure there is not an abundance of each craft, the downside is, they’re pretty picky about your display looks like.
When people buy plushies, I have a thank you card, a business card and clear bags from Amazon that I give everybody. I have small, medium and large clear bags, and when they walk around the market, other people can see what’s in their bag which can help promote sales as well🙏🏼
The bags are in the link in the description of the video now 😊😊 and good luck if you start selling I hope you do well!!
Thanks for sharing.
More to come 🫶🏻😊
welcome to the wonderfull world of markets. highly addictive and unpredictable! never know what sells. at my christmas markets my handmade leather ornaments didnt sell but my star wars ornaments flew of the table. will focus on the nerds next year. you will learn with experience but it is always a roller coaster. some things you will drop because people will not pay for the time it takes. Dont work for free!
So true! And I love that I’ll definitely be working for the nerds in my upcoming markets☺️🫶🏻
Curious as to which printer you purchased and why?
It’s a cannon and it’s just familiar, I’ve had it for years and had to replace it so I got the same model for ease 🥹 I’m sure there are better models available now
the strawberries kind of look like beets a little so maybe you should add seeds to them (: ❤
Thank you for the tip !! I hadn’t thought of the beets 🥹🤣 you’re right hahaha
Can you please link the pattern for the fairies?💖

I also sell on square space, I haven’t committed to Etsy yet ! But I’ve been selling for the most part through markets !
